socal rotary shops?
 
hey guys...im a norcal guy....my dad in socal has an 88 gtu that recently went doodoo on him due to hitting a large rock on the highway that caused his oil cooler to rupture...he had nowhere to pull over at the time, so he drove another 4 miles (insert slap in face here) to the nearest gas station where he called for a tow...1 week later, he was then telling me over the phone, that white smoke was now coming from his exhaust....i was figuring blown coolant seals...which = rebuild....

so...if you guys could hook me up with any local rotary shops in socal with good reputation, that rebuild rotaries for a fair price, it would be greatly appreciated. names of shops, numbers, addresses maybe, or websites...thx guys...

oil starvation=destroyed bearings... it's going to be a costly battle with many casualties.

Also try RMS in LA (Rene's Motorsports) ask for Rene

Both shops are very friendly and knowledgeable :icon_tup:

It would be helpful to know what city your dad's car is marooned in as the good shop that is nearest to it is probably what you're looking for.

TriPoint is up near Simi Valley, RR&R (aka Triple R or Fast Freddies and is my personal favorite) is the other far end loction in Santa Ana.

The rest, in no particular order, are basically in between such as Mazdatrix near Long Beach, Lucky7 near Irwindale, Rotary Power Gardenia, and so on.

once again...he eats poop. he know nothing.

its just dry ice build up in the exhaust...get the car up to normal op temp, then take off the radiator cap.

that should fix it.
